This book was released on 1991 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roman noblewoman Beatrice Cenci (1577-99), associated in history and literature with the crimes of parricide and incest, was a victim of corrupt late Renaissance Rome and an infamous father. This absorbing narrative set in sixteenth-century Rome recounts the turbulent vicissitudes of her wealthy family and her own ill-fated destiny, thrusting her into imprisonment in a castle, illicit love, incest or alleged incest, and murder. Featured are the grim procedures of the Roman court and the nine-month trial of the Cenci - one of the most celebrated trials of the period, with a famous defense based on the charge of incest. Painters, musicians, film directors, and writers from Shelley and Stendhal to Melville and Hawthorne were inspired by Beatrice's tragic story, uncannily relevant to our time. Her victimization, efforts to free herself, and revenge make up a scenario repeated through the centuries.

Book excerpt: Beatrice Cenci was executed in Rome in September 1599- she was said to be sixteen, and was hauntingly beautiful. Her crime was the murder of her father, a member of one of the greatest Roman families, but his cruel treatment of her, including incestuous rape, moved the people of the city to take her side. Weeping crowds lined the streets, and a special mass is still said in Rome on the anniversary of her death. She was at once innocent and guilty, the victim and the perpetrator of appalling crimes. From that time since, the ambivalent image of Beatrice has attracted writers and artists, and often their obsession with her fed their own self-destruction. In this compelling study, Belinda Jack takes on the dangerous challenge of bringing Beatrice to life, and of tracing her power over those who tried to resurrect her, from the tragedy of Shelley to the novels of Nathaniel Hawthorne and Herman Melville, from the sculpture of Harriet Hosmer and the photographs of Julia Margaret Cameron to the desperate drama of Antonin Artaud. As we follow the stories of their lives and ambitions, we see how they suffered critical condemnation for their works about Beatrice, and were sometimes pushed to the brink of insanity. Her story, which is one of lust, passion and violence, contains a powerful sense of the forbidden, the taboo that drives people over the edge. BEATRICE'S SPELL is at once scholarly and utterly engrossing, carrying the power of her story through time.

Download or read book The Cenci (Celebrated Crimes Series) written by Alexandre Dumas and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This antiquarian book contains Alexandre Dumas’s work, “The Cenci”. It was first published as part of his eight-volume series “Celebrated Crimes” (1839–40), and recounts the shocking story of the the Cenci family. Extremely powerful and well-known in sixteenth century Rome, the story of the Cenci is one of the most gruesome in Roman History, one that is expertly and authentically retold here by the master story-teller Alexandre Dumas. Alexandre Dumas (1802–1870) was a famous French writer. He is best remembered for his exciting romantic sagas, including "The Three Musketeers" and "The Count of Monte Cristo". Despite making a great deal of money from his writing, Dumas was almost perpetually penniless thanks to his decidedly extravagant lifestyle. His novels have been translated into nearly a hundred different languages, and have inspired over 200 motion pictures. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing this antiquarian book in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
